Shui Qingyin just forced a smile and said, "Nothing, just a deal with the Verification Beast."

She was weak and the residual poison had not yet been cleared, but she seemed to be relaxed when she said this.

Di Chenyu's heart skipped a beat. Deal?

"Ayin." Queen Mother Ning came hurriedly with Abao.

A Bao skipped to Shui Qingyin's side and held her hand. "Sister Qing, are you feeling better?"

A strand of spiritual energy fell into Shui Qingyin's body. After a moment, the blood in Shui Qingyin's body stopped flowing and her mind became clear.

"Uh-huh."

Abao was smiling.

Queen Mother Ning also followed in and saw Di Chenyu and Shui Qingyin in the temple. "How... did you get in?"

Di Chenyu looked bewildered, but when he came to his senses he realized that he had entered the temple, and that there was no obstruction when he came in.

"Mother, are you okay?" The Queen Mother at this moment looked extremely familiar.

"It's all right." Queen Mother Ning saw the blood in front of the beast incense burner, "Ayin, you actually donated your own life span?"

Shui Qingyin smiled slightly.

Emperor Chenyu was worried, "What is the Water Country's sacrificial array?"

"If you want to avoid the chastity beast's choice of husband, you must awaken the chastity beast with the blood of a virgin. Those who open the sacrificial array will offer their longevity, and only have ten years left to live."

Di Chenyu looked at Shui Qingyin in disbelief, "Virgin blood? Ten years of life?"

Shui Qingyin shrugged, "Ten years is enough for me to take back the remaining 40% of the imperial power from Shi He. From now on, both men and women in our Shui Kingdom can be emperors. Sacrificing me to break the curse of Shui Kingdom is worth it."

"Why don't you think about this? If the chastity beast wakes up, the curse can be broken. If the chastity beast doesn't wake up, the deal will fail. The lost life span will be lost forever."

"This is also the reason why no one in the history of the Water Country has ever started a sacrificial ceremony. Regardless of success or failure, the life span will be lost. Our ancestors would rather choose a husband than gamble half of their hopes. But when it comes to you, you don't even think about it..."

Shui Qingyin looked at the sleeping beast on the stone wall, "It will wake up."

Di Chenyu looked at the girl beside him. She could have chosen the king's husband, or she could have plotted against him, but she... chose to take responsibility alone.

A-Bao stood in front of the mural, and the little girl smiled at it with her milky teeth bared, "Sister Qing has opened the sacrificial array, and the seal of the wall has been broken. You have to wake up quickly, well, wake up tonight, otherwise... you know what will happen."

The mural seemed to sway faintly.

Emperor Chenyu: “…”

It's clearly a baby voice, but I always feel it's a bit threatening?

Shui Qingyin and Queen Mother Ning laughed. How could there be such a lovely little girl in this world?

"It's strange, how can an outsider like you enter the temple? Get out quickly, otherwise it will be bad if our mother misunderstands you." Shui Qingyin was puzzled and quickly took Di Chenyu out of the temple.

Emperor Chenyu: "Is it true that no one except the king can enter this temple?"

"Yeah, of course."

"My sister can come in too, what do you say?"

"The little princess is just a child, so she doesn't count."

Di Chenyu Haha, can it be explained like this?

"Actually, I can also consider..."

"What are you considering? Don't consider it. I don't agree! I have already sacrificed my life for you, and now you are talking to me about consideration. Aren't you trying to trick me? Go, go, go quickly."

Emperor Chenyu:?

Was he suddenly rejected by Shui Qingyin?

Shui Qingyin curled her lips. She only had ten years to live. Even if Di Chenyu agreed to become the king's husband, she couldn't be with him. If she died, he would still be alive? Ahem, what if she didn't want to die?

…

The divine world.

Lord Zhaohua finally woke up again. At this time, the stench in Zhaohua Palace had not yet dissipated. After this incident, Zhaohua seemed to have aged instantly and was extremely angry.

"Go get the sky mirror!" She wanted to see who dared to rebel in Zhaohua Palace, who released those monsters, and who plundered her little garden.

When the Star God and other gods heard the news, they could no longer play mahjong.

"Zhaohua is making trouble again."

"I heard someone was sent to fetch the sky mirror."

"Heh, opening the Sky Mirror requires spiritual energy. Does Zhaohua have that much spiritual energy?"

"She won't really see Emperor Jiaoyang, will she? If she does, her existence will be exposed."

"That girl is very smart. She must have made preparations a long time ago."

The mirror was opened, and Zhao Hua was ready to punish the person he saw immediately, and he would definitely destroy the person to ashes.

But looking at it, huh?

"Why is there so much white fog?" The sky mirror was like a surveillance camera. When Zhao Hua used his spiritual power to check what had happened in the past two days, he found that there was no image at all. The mirror was filled with white fog. Not to mention a human figure, not even a bird could be seen.

"How could this be? The Sky Mirror is a divine artifact. There is no way anyone could be so powerful as to interfere with it."

Zhaohua went mad again.

"God, there is something strange in the Lingxiao Temple."

Zhao Hua turned away. The God Emperor was not there, and she was the boss, so she could enter the Lingxiao Temple at will.

There was a strand of white hair in the hall, which at this moment spread out.

"The Verification Beast is about to wake up?" Zhao Hua's eyes darkened.

She immediately went down to the mortal world to find Shi He, but Shi He was beaten black and blue. Zhao Hua secretly cursed him as a waste, "You can't even handle a woman, and you still want to ascend to become a god?"

Shi He was now filled with rage, "The Verification Beast is about to awaken. We can't enter the Water Kingdom Temple."

"But what if I am a chastity beast?"

Shi He was surprised, "Master wants to make a fake one?"

"Shui Qingyin opened the sacrificial formation. I never thought that she would dare not choose a husband, but to carry the responsibility alone and not let you enter the temple. Very good, since she wants the chastity beast to wake up and recognize her as its master, I have no choice but to give her this opportunity.

But it is not that the chastity beast recognizes its master, but that the chastity beast devours its master. Shui Qingyin steps down and supports you to ascend to the throne, and you can still enter the temple. "

"Master, you can't kill Ayin, she..."

"You don't really like her, do you? To achieve the great Dao, one should not be fussy about trivial matters. Shi He, you are always indulging in these love affairs. How can you ascend to heaven? When you ascend to the highest position of God in the future, why worry about not meeting a better woman than Shui Qingyin?"

Shi He clenched his fists tightly, he would never meet... he would never meet a woman better than A Yin again.

He only cared about her.

"After killing Shui Qingyin, at worst, I will promise you her soul." Zhao Hua snorted coldly and turned into a ray of empty light and left.

Shi He looked outside and it was already dark.

Suddenly he felt that the world was different from what he had imagined.

Aren't gods supposed to protect the mortal world? Why did his master's words make him feel uneasy?

"I'm afraid this day is going to change."

…

When midnight arrived, the chastity beast on the mural outside the temple quietly opened its eyes, and the words of the little girl during the day came to his mind vividly.

It was just a three-and-a-half-year-old child, but it was afraid of her, as if she was born to suppress it.

It was so frightened that it dared not sleep anymore.

However, that little girl looked very much like the little girl who released it from the beast cage in the divine world.

But why does she look like just a mortal?
